Beyond The Misteletoe Holiday Collection 2011: Swatches and Review

Hello my sugar babies! Today I have the Holiday Collection for Color Club, "Beyond The Mistletoe".

This collection was and still is, very sought after, and for GOOD reason :)

"Holiday Splendor"
2 coats

Hands down the favorite from the collection :) Holographic glitter suspended in a green jelly base...LOVE!!!! In real life, it sparkles far more than my pictures depict...come on ya'll it's hard to capture MAGIC like this..LOL :)

Love the name, because I love candy canes!!! This is a soft pink holographic glitter, which actually has bits of purple and blue glitter in it. Even though it is a pink, it's very pretty!

"Beyond The Mistletoe"
2 coats

Teal based holographic glitter, and it is very nice. This one is more sheer than the others, so 3 coats may be needed, or you can layer your favorite aqua shade under it, to give it added depth :)

"Gingerbread"
2 coats

Gold holographic glitter...it doesn't get much blingier than that! I like this one because the gold is NOT brassy, it's softer and prettier on my hands, in my opinion.

"Jingle Jangle"
2 coats

Blue based holographic glitter, that shines with a little silver glitter as well. This was thin and a bit "patchy" as well, and I would probably wear this with 3 coats, or 2 coat over my favorite crisp light blue. So soft and pretty! :)

This collection reminds me of fairies, and little iridescent tinted wings. Like most glitters, these dry gritty, so 2 coats of top coat are needed, at a minimum. None the less, I love this collection, it is the lighter, prettier side of the holidays! My favorites are "Holiday Splendor", "Beyond The Mistletoe", and "Sugarplum Fairy", but seriously if you spot this collection, they ALL are WINNERS!!!!
